I used the existing 9.00x20 tubes when I switched to new 11.00x20 NDT military tires in the rear and tractor steer tires on the front on the M35. I had no problem and ran it for >7000 miles, sold the truck to 54REO, and the tubes are still the same. The tire service guy said it was safe...

Operators of radio equipment are federally licensed. Users of appliances like cellphones are not.

A nitrous oxide trick I have seen is to light a cigarette, inhale nitrous oxide, and immediately exhale through the cigarette. The coal becomes a white hot torch and will burn through a pie plate or aluminum beer can. Bets were won. The nitrous can't burn by itself so it was presumed 'safe' to...

The H250 mike will work, it is dynamic. The earpiece will also work as long as the thing is used as a handset and little volume is expected as a speaker. The switch can be made to key the radio without too much trouble. Hey do it right and mount a military connector on the CB and paint the CB...

I got a feeling much of it will end up in Africa just like much USA iron ends up in South America.

They can sell for more depending on the buyer so ebay is the ticket. It is a pretty good receiver actually and works on the 6-meter ham band in FM mode.

not bama.com it is broken, edebris.com and click on bama. Some other military manuals are on amforever.net

I have four 12-volt 93AH Hawker SBS AGM batteries that are about 6-7 years old. They still perform as new according to the battery tester. I float them at 12.65V in an 80 degree environment and use a regulated power supply to keep them charged. Sulfation or other decay does not seem to have been...

The performance is poor at 1600RPM, but it is not an issue going through the gears to get on the highway. Its slow but no worse than it was before. If the ramp is uphill, I just stay in the necessary gear until I can resume acceleration. My truck weighs only 23000 and that is an advantage over a...

A vehicle I know of had the gunnplexer and horn antenna from a supermarket door opener mounted inside the rear window. Speeders with radar detectors never came up too fast when illuminated like that. There is a collision avoidance system available on some vehicles and generically too, but there...

I'm very sad to hear of this, and my prayers are for you all.

With small engines and small oil pans, keeping the oil in good shape is #1. The TM might say to change it more often than you think. As far as turning on all the lights, it depends on if you think others will view that as an indication of who has valuable resources.

Not until they are considered skilled labor and paid properly by the hour, not cents a mile, forced to work with broken equipment, and treated like cr@p. You may get your wish but don't be at the front of the complaint line when it cost $25 instead of $9 to ship a 1 lb box by fedex or $1000 to...

I attribute 17000 highway miles with almost no engine wear on my deuce to having never over revved it. That meant doing 50-55 with 11.00x20's. Not doing the full 59MPH with 11.00x20's which is the 2650RPM redline. stay off the redline. That's 56MPH with stock 9.00x20 tires.:deadhorse:

Looks really good. Do you have a means for power and a/c while away from 120V? Can you share the schematic for the electrical upgrades?

Just check the laws regarding how far things can stick out from the body of the vehicle, and whether it applies to things that are presumed part of the vehicle or not. A good rule of thumb is if it is not farther out than the mirrors that is OK. But check the state and federal laws, might be...

I agree that they could create a product line for this but they'd have to ramp up the BTUs. Their stuff is made for cars and pickup trucks and is way too small real comfort in a deuce or 5T unless you consider 80 to be 'cool'. Most such a/c add-ons are about 10,000-13,000BTU. You need...

a similar vehicle here.. Damnation Alley Landmaster Page a pity the ARK II was dismantled and parts of it were used for other productions. Sort of like the Batmobile of motor homes.

if $ were no object, an appropriately profiled aluminum hull would look good on the back. But a paint job would help the body it has. Not suggesting a rounded body, something more military. To me, the HEMMT is a sleek looking vehicle and customizing with that look could be carried out all the...
